Various embodiments relate to a device for reducing noise in a received signal, the device including a memory; a processor configured to: receive a signal containing narrow band noise which was transmitted over a channel and received at an analog front end; add two separate delays to the signal to generate a first delayed signal and a second delayed signal; apply an adaptive noise cancellation using the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal to estimate the narrow band noise; and remove the narrow band noise based upon the estimated narrow band noise.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A device for reducing noise in a received signal, the device comprising: a memory; a processor configured to receive a signal containing narrow band noise which was transmitted over a channel and received at an analog front end, add two separate delays to the received signal to generate a first delayed signal and a second delayed signal, wherein the two separate delays are tuned to achieve correlation and the first delayed signal is cross-correlated with the second delayed signal, apply an adaptive noise cancellation using the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal to estimate the narrow band noise, and remove the narrow band noise based upon the estimated narrow band noise.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove multi-tone narrow band radio frequency noise.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove the noise prior to performing echo cancelation and adaptive equalization.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove the noise after performing echo cancellation and prior to performing adaptive equalization.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove the noise after performing echo cancelation and adaptive equalization but prior to performing a timing recovery.
6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove the noise after performing a first echo cancellation and prior to performing a second echo cancelation.
7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to remove the noise prior to performing echo cancelation, adaptive equalization, and timing recovery.
8. A method for reducing noise in a received signal, the method comprising: receiving a signal containing narrow band noise which was transmitted over a channel and received at an analog front end; adding two separate delays to the received signal to generate a first delayed signal and a second delayed signal, wherein the two separate delays are tuned to achieve correlation and the first delayed signal is cross-correlated with the second delayed signal; applying an adaptive noise cancellation using the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal to estimate the narrow band noise; and removing the narrow band noise based upon the estimated narrow band noise.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, multi-tone narrow band radio frequency noise.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, the noise prior to performing echo cancelation and adaptive equalization.
11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, the noise after performing echo cancellation and prior to performing adaptive equalization.
12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, the noise after performing echo cancelation and adaptive equalization but prior to performing a timing recovery.
13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, the noise after performing a first echo cancellation and prior to performing a second echo cancelation.
14. The method of claim 8 , further comprising: removing, with a processor, the noise prior to performing echo cancelation, adaptive equalization and timing recovery.
15. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium encoded with instructions for execution of a method for reducing noise in a received signal, by a processor in a receiver comprising: instructions for receiving a signal containing narrow band noise which was transmitted over a channel and received at an analog front end; instructions for adding two separate delays to the received signal to generate a first delayed signal and a second delayed signal, wherein the two separate delays are tuned to achieve correlation and the first delayed signal is cross-correlated with the second delayed signal; instructions for applying an adaptive noise cancellation using the first delayed signal and the second delayed signal to estimate the narrow band noise; and instructions for removing the narrow band noise based upon the estimated narrow band noise.
16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising: instructions for removing multi-tone narrow band radio frequency noise.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising: instructions for removing the noise prior to performing echo cancelation and adaptive equalization.
18. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising: instructions for removing the noise after performing echo cancellation and prior to performing adaptive equalization.
